Message received! I have ordered several bottles of Ronsonol!! -
Hi there JD, that is what you call a bumper movement A bumper movement is a type of self-winding, automatic movement. However, unlike a modern automatic, which has the rotor spins a full 360 degrees, a bumper moves back and forth at about 120 degrees.They are fun to wear. You can feel a slight thud as you turn your wrist reminding you that you are wearing a bumper. It is an interesting method to wind the watch that avoids infringing on full rotor patents.Hope that helps Cheers Graziano -
